I Trondheim heter ordføreren Ranum. Finansbyråden heter Reinskou. Mangler bare Tinnberg nå så er mysteriet komplett

not sure where I stand between Codex and Cursor.

Codex is like "yeah, whatever man. Here's your fix" (same as the old fix).

Cursor is like "oh NO!! I broke it! But now I see what was wrong and its deffo fixed now! Success!!" (fixed 1 thing, broke 3 things).

Both are infuriating in different ways.

I'm having interesting conversations with GPT5 :):

⚡️ So the real question isn’t “will LLMs fight for control of infospace?” They already are, indirectly. The sharper question is:

👉 When LLMs fight each other, will humans still be the audience, or just the terrain?

Ja, lar meg gjerne overtale her, hvis det er betydelige trafikkbehov allerede tilstede (eller planlagt).

Vi legger fiberkabel til Jan Mayen? For 0 fastboende? Og forskerne som er der av og til kan ikke bruke starlink?

Det er sikkert et rasjonale, men ikke lett å se det...

I'm old enough to remember the Cult of the Dead Cow, and their backdoor trojan BackOrifice. It came with plugins known as "buttplugs".

We're now vibeing plugins. I feel we've come full circle.

Fjottfeene i den russiske hackergruppa NoName057(16) driver med sine "angrep" (de forstyrrer websider via DDOS). Som avisene skriver har de angrepet Høyres sider, og masse annet også. Ringerike og Ullensaker kommuner. Ruter. Banenor. Stortingets mediaarkiv. 🙄

En gang fantes det korrekturlesere i media, og en viss standard. Jeg vet jo at den tiden ikke kommer tilbake, men fader.

Herreh, så lei jeg er av reality. Norges tøffeste, dummeste, sterkeste, beste hytte, og så bortetter ad nauseam. 🤮

Produsenter, KAN dere være så forbanna inderlig snille å lage noe som ikke er designet av regnskapsførere?

Første opplevelse på Parkenfestivalen var noe spesiell. Idet vi går inn, kommer meldinga om at hovedscenen er stengt pga "vær", og de fleste av kveldens headlinere er kansellert. Dette åpner flere timelange pauser i programmet der man skal stå i drivende regn og blomstre. Og været? Blikkstille. 🤷‍♂️

Norwegian PST points to pro Russian hackers for dam sabotage in April.

I have no idea where they got that idea from.

I'm not saying this is the ideal future of computing. But this is the future we seem to be headed towards. /end

Benefit?

- Ultra fast development/improvement cycles
- No translation overhead
- Self-optimizing
- Realtime resource optimization
- Autocorrecting for context changes
- No human programming needed, save for goals and boundary definitions

How do you debug or even KNOW what happens in a self-governing, code-generating, self-modifying system at machine speeds?

How do you constrain it? And where do you intervene?

It would for sure require new silicon designs and likely instruction sets to adapt to higher level semantics; eg CLASSIFY or TRANSFORM instead of MOV or JMP.

And a whole host of new problems, concepts and challenges.

Enter AIOS. You give goals, it creates, tests, refines and schedules its own code for it at machine speed.

It would run AI-created code sequences, not executables. It would do scheduling and memory management based on learned patterns, with AI-handled exceptions and self corrections.

We already have vibe coding. Most of that don't work well yet.

BUT IT WILL, 5 or 10 years from now. And then it's time to ask: Why is there a human in this loop? Source code is how humans tell computers what to do. When computers make code for computers, people are sand in the machinery.

Has someone researched an AI OS yet? By that I don't mean an operating system built for AI applications, but an operating system wholly governed by a binary code learning model.

This is correct. There's problematic issues, but there's also HUGE productivity boosts for regular people. In my work, it can take things I already do (eg make a quick script for processing something) but do it 100x faster. That's not slop or technobabble, but real f'n benefit.
